Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method and a system for alerting a driver of a vehicle departing from a driving area in a traffic lane.
  • the term "vehicle” is defined as a vehicle provided with at least one wheel and is capable of driving on a road, and which is being steered by a driver, which may be human or an automatic system, where said vehicle may preferably be a car or a truck, and may be in two or more parts, such as a tractor provided with one or more trailers.
  • a driver which may be human or an automatic system
  • said vehicle may preferably be a car or a truck, and may be in two or more parts, such as a tractor provided with one or more trailers.
  • Other vehicles are conceivable, such as two wheeled vehicles, e.g. motorcycles.
  • Such lane markings excite the chassis structure of a vehicle to create a loud rumbling noise and vibration, when the tyres of a vehicle are running over these in order to warn a driver that the vehicle has crossed over the rumble strips.
  • the resulting rumbling noise and vibration may not be sensed at all by a driver.
  • a lane deviation warning system as disclosed in GB 2 232 518 comprises electrically conductive lane markings and detectors provided in the vehicle.
  • this system requires the installation of conductive markings in the road, which makes this system expensive and time consuming to install.
  • This object is achieved by a method and a system for performing such method for alerting a driver of a vehicle of a departure from a driving area in a lane, comprising the steps of performing wheel vibrations measurements of at least one wheel on the vehicle, while the vehicle is being driven; using said wheel vibration measurements for detecting a periodic signal of a predetermined nature corresponding to a periodic lane marking; and in that case providing an attention signal in order to alert said driver of the lane deviation.
  • the method provides a low-cost solution of lane deviation detection which can be mounted on any vehicle.
  • the solution proposed by the present invention is based on the realisation and the taking advantage of the fact that when a vehicle is travelling on a road having lane markings, which are protruding with a certain height from the lane and placed with constant increments a, i.e. periodically, the crossing of these creates vibrations in the wheels of the vehicle, which vibrations may be measured directly to detect such a lane deviation.
  • the method uses already available indicators like the lane markings themselves and the wheel response to said lane markings for an effective lane deviation detection. Accordingly, an accurate detection is possible independently of the weather and road condition.
  • the periodic signal detection step of said method comprises the steps of providing wheel speed measurements (v, ⁇ ); performing signal processing upon said wheel vibration measurements and said wheel speed measurements (v, ⁇ ) for a detection of such periodic signal of a predetermined nature.
  • Present signal processing devices such as processors, have reached a processing rate capable of providing a fast and reliable response to reduced data input, such as is the case when alerting drivers of veering vehicles, where a reduced alerting time period is available for detection of a relatively low number of lane markings through the use of wheel vibrations. It is accordingly possible to employ the present method quickly and reliably by signal processing of the induced wheel vibrations. A reliable method is thus provided which results in a fast alert to a vehicle driver.
  • the signal processing step comprises frequency domain analysis comprising peak detection, preferably within an adaptive interval around a frequency peak.
  • Digital processing circuits are available commercially, which provide for such fast signal processing as frequency analysis is requiring, and is suitable for reducing road vibration noise and for providing a reliable detection of whether a lane marking of constant increment a, i.e. periodic, is present or not.
  • the signal processing step comprises FFT-analysis comprising peak detection.
  • FFT-analysis comprising peak detection.
  • the frequency peak being detected is a function of the lane marking increment a.
  • This increment a expressed in a distance unit such as cm or mm, may thus either be known or unknown to the system, which is an advantage, considering how many different types of rumble strips are provided in the world having different increments a.
  • a given predetermined set of increments a is stored in a storage means, e.g. provided alongside the processor means.
  • the set of increments a may be depending upon geographical area in the world, to which the vehicle is sold, in which case the frequency interval within which the peak detection is performed may advantageously be decreased.
  • the frequency analysis is providing the increment data a adaptively, based on the wheel velocity measurements and the resulting detected peaks, which peaks are determined as corresponding to lane markings increments a.
  • a frequency detection interval may be predetermined in order to reduce the peak detection time needed.
  • noise in the wheel vibration measurements is reduced using a comparison between first and second wheel vibration measurements from a first wheel provided in one side of the vehicle and a second wheel provided opposed said first wheel on the other side of the vehicle, respectively.
  • the lane surface and wheel condition may cause more or less wheel vibration noise, which in this way may be reduced significantly, providing a more reliable peak detection.
  • said wheel vibrations measurements are performed on an end section of a vehicle axle supporting said at least one wheel.
  • the input excitations from the opposite wheel are reduced to a minimum, providing a reduced noise level influence from the rest of the vehicle, especially from the wheel opposite of the wheel being measured upon.
  • the wheel vibration measurement is performed for at least a vertical y-direction. Accordingly, since the vibrations induced into a wheel by driving over a plurality of lane markings having constant increment primarily is provided in the vertical direction or y- direction, the main part of such vibrations is available for detection by the present method.
  • at least the wheel vibration measuring step is performed continually. During driving of the vehicle periodic wheel vibration signals are being detected continuously, which ensures that no lane deviation is performed without the system being at least aware of this fact.
  • the periodic wheel vibration signal is used to detect the lane marking increment and/or the relationship between the length of the lane markings and the distance between the lane markings. This is useful when the lane markings contain certain information, such as the actual speed limit.
  • At least the attention signal is deactivated when the vehicle speed is outside a predefined speed interval, and/or when the vehicle is located within a predefined geographical area. Accordingly, an intelligent method and system is provided, where it is possible to distinguish between situations, e.g. when a driver wilfully drives across a rumble strip, or when the vehicle is in a country, where such lane deviation warning signals are prohibited by law, or when the driver is crossing e.g. a parking area, where there are provided lane markings, which are not in fact rumble strips, but may resemble these.
  • a maximum vehicle speed limit is advantageously provided due to speed limitations in many countries, but also due to considerations of frequency analysis and corresponding warning reaction time limitations, when driving at these maximum speeds.
  • a minimum speed limit is useful when the speed of the vehicle is not causing significant risk, e.g. at the time when the vehicle is starting up, and may be chosen dependent upon the total weight of the vehicle.
  • said wheel speed measurement is provided by measuring the angular velocity of said at least one wheel with a wheel angular velocity measurement means, providing wheel radius data for said at least one wheel, and calculating the wheel speed being equal to the angular velocity multiplied by the wheel radius data.
  • a wheel angular velocity measurement means provides wheel radius data for said at least one wheel, and calculating the wheel speed being equal to the angular velocity multiplied by the wheel radius data.
  • the wheel radius data is provided from a wheel data chip provided in said at least one wheel. Often, such a wheel data chip is available in tyres, giving a precise determination of wheel radius for a more accurate signal processing.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un système et un procédé destinés à avertir le conducteur d'un véhicule de l'abandon d'une zone de circulation dans une voie. Le procédé consiste à fournir la mesure de la vibration de la roue d'au moins une roue du véhicule pendant la conduite du véhicule. On utilise ensuite cette mesure de la vibration de la roue pour détecter un signal périodique d'une nature prédéterminée correspondant à un marquage périodique des voies, et, dans ce cas, pour émettre un signal d'attention afin de prévenir le conducteur d'une déviation de la voie. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, le stade de détection du signal périodique consiste à fournir une mesure de la vitesse de la roue (v, ?), à effectuer un traitement du signal au moment de la mesure de la vibration de la roue et à fournir une mesure de la vitesse de la roue (v, ?) à des fins de détection de ce signal périodique de nature prédéterminée. A la différence des procédés des techniques antérieures, ce procédé utilise les informations déjà disponibles directement et non pas indirectement comme c'est, par exemple, dans le cas d'utilisation des capteurs optiques. Le procédé propose une solution à faible coût pour la détection de la déviation de la voie, qui peut être intégrée à n'importe quel véhicule. La solution proposée dans la présente invention est fondée sur la prise en compte et l'utilisation du fait que lorsqu'un véhicule se déplace sur une route possédant un marquage des voies ou un marquage latéral qui fait saillie de la voie et est placé à des intervalles périodiques, le fait de traverser ce marquage provoque des vibrations dans les roues du véhicule, lesdites vibrations pouvant être mesurées directement pour détecter cette déviation de la voie. De cette manière, ce procédé utilise les indicateurs déjà disponibles comme le tracé des voies proprement dit et la réaction de la roue audit tracé des voies pour cette détection de la déviation de la voie. Par conséquent, il est possible de mettre en oeuvre une détection de précision indépendamment de conditions météo et de l'état de la chaussée.
